Brunello di Montalcino - Riserva 2015

Grapes

Sangiovese Grosso.

Harvest 2015

A growing season with optimal conditions has produced excellent grapes for a stellar vintage. The perfect maturity levels of the grapes mean great color extraction and imposing structure, ideal for long term cellaring. Grapes were picked in small lug boxes from Vigneto Paradiso and carried for the short distance down to the winery where they were immediately crushed.

Aging

At least 42 months in oak casks of different capacity.

Bottling

Unfiltered and unfined, vegan friendly

Bottle aging

In our cellars at a naturally controlled temperature and humidity

Color

Intense ruby red, with intense anthocyanin concentration and garnet reflections.

Bouquet

Intense and persistent with wild berries, hints of vanilla and spicy notes, very complex.

Flavor

Very complex and intense, well-structured with a long evolution ahead.

Serving temperature

18-20°C, 64-68°F, in a decanter.

Gastronomy

Great wine with roasts, grilled meats, wild game, and elaborate dishes, as well as rare T-bone steaks. Excellent also as a “meditation” wine.
